REPORT FOR OPENFILE

We founded OpenFile in the belief that local news should be a conversation, not a monologue. That said, we understand that the issues, events and personalities that shape our community can be divisive. When healthy debate degenerates into name-calling, personal attacks or hate speech, that’s when we have to step in. We do not call this censorship. We call this respecting others.

Community Guidelines

Personal attacks/Hate speech

Hostile remarks or hate speech aimed at an individual or group based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender and/or sexual orientation will not be tolerated in the comment posts or other points of contact throughout the website.

Spamming

Do not post comments or content with a commercial interest (including spam and link spam).

Plagiarism

Plagiarism, including failure to acknowledge source material and posting of unlicensed imagery and video, will not be tolerated.
